II. Integrating SSH across Horizon 2020
SSH in Horizon 2020 "Social sciences humanities (SSH) research will be fully integrated into each of the general objectives of Horizon 2020" Horizon 2020 regulation
European Research Council Excellent science Frontier research by the best individual teams Future Emerging Technologies Collaborative research to open new fields of innovation Marie Curie-Sklodowska actions Opportunities for training career development Research infrastructures (including e-infrastructure) - Ensuring access to world-class facilities
SSH in Excellent Science The European Research Council (ERC) is already a major funding source for investigator-driven frontier research. About 17% of the ERC-budget will be allocated to SSH Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions (MCA) give opportunities for greater mobility network building. The SSH share is 11-12% Several major research infrastructures in the SSH are supported by FP7/H2020: CESSDA, DARIAH, CLARIN, ESS, SHARE, InGRID
Leadership in enabling & industrial technologies (ICT, nanotechnologies, materials, biotechnology, manufacturing, space) Access to risk finance Leveraging private finance venture capital for research innovation in SMEs Industrial leadership Fostering all forms of innovation in all types of SMEs
SSH in Industrial Leadership Strengthening the cultural social aspects of innovation SSH as a source of creativity in development of services products Societal aspects of new emerging technologies (e.g. societal acceptance; citizens' participation in decisionshaping; ethical aspects; new technologies changing lifestyles) Business management models
1 Health, demographic change wellbeing 2 Agriculture forestry, marine maritime inl water research the bioeconomy 3 Secure, clean efficient energy 4 Smart, green integrated transport 5 Climate action, environment, resource efficiency raw materials 6 Inclusive, innovative reflective societies 7 Secure societies Societal Challenges
SSH in Societal Challenges SC1: Understing the determinants of health optimising the effectiveness of healthcare provisions SC2: Support to policies empowering rural areas promoting informed consumer choices SC3: Robust decision making on energy policy a transition to a sustainable energy system
SSH in Societal Challenges SC4: Supporting evidence based transport policy foresight, urban mobility SC5: Support to CC mitigation adaptation strategies, resource efficiency initiatives towards a green economy SC7: Cultural socio-economic aspects of security, risk management issues (including legal & human rights)
Example of SSH Topics ("flagged") SC1- Health - Call PHC 22 2015 'Promoting mental wellbeing in the ageing population' SC3 Energy - Call EE 11 2014 'Socioeconomic research on energy efficiency' SC7 Security - Call FCT 14 2015 'Understing the underlying social, psychological economic aspects of the genesis, methods motivation of organized crime (including cyber related offenses)'
Integrating SSH: practical steps Flagging tool will be provided, giving immediate link to certain topics which correspond to important horizontal issues The expert advisory groups of each Societal Challenge include SSH scientists The evaluation panels of the Societal Challenges need to include experts with SSH competences A regular review of the implementation of interdisciplinarity in each Societal Challenge should also be organised during the lifetime of Horizon 2020
